How will energy look in 2035?
By 2035 we envisage a very different world. We can expect a much more diverse range of heating sources, with significantly lower emissions, and where all new vehicles are low carbon. The energy system of the future will be more decentralised, disaggregated and multi-vector, where for each of our needs there will not be just one solution, but many.

How networks can overcome the EV challenge
Decarbonising the transport sector is a key element of UK government policy for meeting climate change targets. Against this backdrop, the market for electric vehicles (EVs) is growing rapidly and EVs are currently leading the way in decarbonising road transport, at least for domestic and light commercial use. However, as the uptake of EVs is increasing, the impact of charging requirements on the electricity networks is becoming an issue. Might this, coupled with the existing regulation in this area, seriously hamper the adoption of EVs?

How harnessing data can make your connected assets work for you
Organisations across the power sector have always known their assets were valuable, but transformations in technology now mean they can deliver rich rewards that were unimaginable just a few years ago. Assets are no longer simply to be ‘managed’; they can provide an integrated holistic dataset, enabling more efficient and effective decision making, and a safer distribution network.

How gamification can support the energy transition
As customer behaviours change and we become more digitally orientated, gamification of otherwise mundane tasks can help motivate people to take actions that benefit their health, their wallet and their lives. But, can gamification play a positive role in essential services or critical infrastructure?

How Cadent is building a low-carbon future for the UK
Today (Thursday 2 May) the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) published its long awaited ‘Net Zero – The UK’s contribution to stopping global warming’ report. I believe its release, just days after the Extinction Rebellion protests and Labour’s call to declare a ‘Climate Emergency’, marks a really important step towards the low, or even zero, carbon economy that we need to build in the UK.

Householders vital to net-zero transition, says ADE
Laying the foundations for net zero: Putting households at the heart of the energy transition says that householders have a crucial role to play in decarbonisation, and that it is unlikely that a net zero trajectory will be met without clear action taken by householders.
